How Will Your Tweet Be Received? Predicting the Sentiment Polarity of Tweet Replies

1 code implementation21 Apr 2021 Soroosh Tayebi Arasteh, Mehrpad Monajem, Vincent Christlein, Philipp Heinrich, Anguelos Nicolaou, Hamidreza Naderi Boldaji, Mahshad Lotfinia, Stefan Evert

As a strong baseline, we propose a two-stage DL-based method: first, we create automatically labeled training data by applying a standard sentiment classifier to tweet replies and aggregating its predictions for each original tweet; our rationale is that individual errors made by the classifier are likely to cancel out in the aggregation step.

Differentiable Data Augmentation with Kornia

1 code implementation19 Nov 2020 Jian Shi, Edgar Riba, Dmytro Mishkin, Francesc Moreno, Anguelos Nicolaou

In this paper we present a review of the Kornia differentiable data augmentation (DDA) module for both for spatial (2D) and volumetric (3D) tensors.

Improving Text Proposals for Scene Images with Fully Convolutional Networks

1 code implementation16 Feb 2017 Dena Bazazian, Raul Gomez, Anguelos Nicolaou, Lluis Gomez, Dimosthenis Karatzas, Andrew D. Bagdanov

Text Proposals have emerged as a class-dependent version of object proposals - efficient approaches to reduce the search space of possible text object locations in an image.

Local Binary Pattern for Word Spotting in Handwritten Historical Document

no code implementations20 Apr 2016 Sounak Dey, Anguelos Nicolaou, Josep Llados, Umapada Pal

Digital libraries store images which can be highly degraded and to index this kind of images we resort to word spot- ting as our information retrieval system.

Improving patch-based scene text script identification with ensembles of conjoined networks

1 code implementation24 Feb 2016 Lluis Gomez, Anguelos Nicolaou, Dimosthenis Karatzas

Instead of resizing input images to a fixed aspect ratio as in the typical use of holistic CNN classifiers, we propose here a patch-based classification framework in order to preserve discriminative parts of the image that are characteristic of its class.
